The president's lawyers have not yet filed their "expedited appeal" to the Third Circuit.

They also haven't filed a notice of appeal in the district court, which is the first step. If their goal really is to prevent Pennsylvania from certifying its election results -- which is supposed to happen tomorrow -- the clock's ticking.

This an appeal on the ruling to dismiss. Even if they win the appeal, that just means the judge must actually hear the case. Thats it. This is so over.

(6,473 posts)8. Yes everything is computerized now-you no longer actually go to Courthouse
You just log-in, access the federal PACER system and click. You can file 24 hours a day
